Hi all! You guys were definitely right when I asked weeks ago whether this little one was a rooster 
And I’m pretty positive he’s a silver duckwing Phoenix rooster. But I’m wondering if he’s also a bantam. He’s always been a bit smaller than the other chicks, lighter frame, scrawnier/lighter when you pick him up. He’s super gentle and easy to handle. I’d guess he’s about 9-10 weeks old. And about half the size or less of our adult black Australorp females.
I don’t have a great recent pic to show size comparison but he’s def. a lot smaller than our barred rock pullets of the same age.
